GMT/timezone really doesn't matter: the timezone is set inside your
computer and would be better served with tzconfig. This having been
said, what stratum are you cool with? I use tycho.usno.navy.mil
(192.5.41.293), but that's second stratum (it's also The Naval
Observatory's WWW time server).

I don't know. Try to find it out by reading in /usr/doc/xntp3 and the
corrosponding man pages or measure it...

With xntp3 you donot need to have a crontab entry. The xntpd daemon will
take care of it.

Hi all,
Is there a command I can put in cron to have the time set by a ntp server
that is appropriate for the UK?

Have a look at the documentation in the xntp3 package. There is a link
buried somewhere on a li

By spec, ntp servers try to sync to UTC, not GMT. Since the difference
is probably not important, that means -any- ntp server -should-
I have always found tick.usno.navy.mil and tock.usno.navy.mil to be
helpful. For more information check out, www.usno.navy.mil.

Does anyone know the ip's of some ntp servers that are on gmt? I'm trying to
get my computer time correctly set to gmt so it will display the correct time.
